The successes of the environmental justice movement have been celebrated, and the EJM's impact on the direction of environmental policy, research, and activism is widely acknowledged. But the literature on environmental justice lacks a real assessment of the movement's effectiveness. This book provides just a critical appraisal, examining the EJM's tactics, strategies, rhetoric, organizational structure, and resource base. The book links theory and practice with the aim of contributing to a more effective movement. It looks first at the progress, failures, and successes of the EJM over the years.
